There are people who want and need to go to the temple every year who aren't able to go for one reason or another. I'm sure some of those affected by last year's sellout wanted & needed to make it there as well (based on some of the threads posted), this year's situation of much higher demand than supply is just, well, more of that.

That said, I'm looking forward to seeing info published regarding this year's temple (as well as some of the other honorarium art grants).

thanks trilo i just thought about what it would be like if i needed to go to temple and I didn't have a ticket. that would suck. my heart goes out to those that this happens to. keep trying the temple will always be there.
